How to work it out

  1. Turn the percentage into a decimal: 99 ÷ 100 = 0.99
  2. Multiply: 0.99 × 96 = 95.04
  3. Check: Work backwards: 95.04 ÷ 96 × 100 = 99%.

Another method. As a proportion of part to whole: 99/100 = part/96, so part = 99 × 96 ÷ 100 = 95.04. Both methods always give the same answer.

In a spreadsheet: =99%*96. Forgetting to divide the percentage by 100 makes the answer 100 times too big. Note that x% of y always equals y% of x.

What the result means

95.04 is the 99% share of 96. The remaining 1% is 0.96, and the two parts add back up to 96.

Discounts: 99% off an item priced $96 saves $95.04, so you pay $0.96.

Adding and taking away 99%

Increasing 96 by 99% gives 191.04 and decreasing it by 99% gives 0.96. These do not cancel out: raising 96 by 99% and then lowering the result by 99% ends at 1.9104, because the second 99% is taken of a bigger number.
